Buoy Lyrics

Buoy - Mick Karn

Underneath a burning sun

There's always work to be done

We take much more than we care to give away

You'll be the moth, I'm the flame

I'll bless you and keep you safe and sound

Until sunrise comes around again

I'm like a mountain made of stone

I'm like a new day dawning

I'll be here every morning, close to you

We'll sail on a river,

way out to the Baltic sea

Love will keep us together

And the tide will draw you close to me

Never words so true,

never words so wise

Love will keep us together

Cause there's more to this than meets the eye

I burn a candle in your place

I picture the passions on your face

Feelings that rise on a wave and fall away

All the pleasures have returned

All of the lessons I should have learned

Return again to light, for us to see

You're like the map of buried gold

I search for treasures in your soul

And when I'm gone,

you'll know I will come back to you

We'll sail on a river,

way out to the Baltic sea

Love will keep us together

And the tide will draw you close to me

Never words so true,

never words so wise

Love will keep us together

Cause there's more to this than meets the eye

I'm like a mountain made of stone

I'm like a new day dawning

I'll be here every morning, close to you
